Short in the electrical system or a poor ground somewhere. There are I think 4 grounds on the Maz truck as follows: One at the battery that grounds to right fender, one that grounds the engine to the firewall, one that grounds the cab to the chassis, and one that grounds the coil. Locate these, remove the ground screw, clean the ground with fine grit paper and reattach and see if that helps. There is an igniter module inside the dist cap. It may be bad as well, but usually when it fails, it fails completely, not a little at a time.Take the cover off the steering column (2 screws) and see if the switch wiring looks ok and has tight connections.Beyond that, I am not much help,but random elec problems are biotches to locate and remedy.bj
